ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Feb. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- DISH expanded its On Demand offerings by more than 7,000 titles after adding 11 à la carte on-demand packages that customers can subscribe to on a monthly basis. Starting at $2.99 per month, the new on-demand packages enhance DISH's existing programming options by delivering catalogs of video content, including original series and documentaries from UP Faith & Family, Dove Channel, CuriosityStream and more. These on-demand subscriptions join the tens of thousands of on-demand movies, TV series and events available to DISH customers for rent, purchase or included with their channel package.

"DISH's competitive On Demand universe is all-encompassing. Whether bingeing seasons of your favorite TV series on-demand or purchasing a digital copy of a new release movie, there are many avenues for customers to access the content they want, when they want it," said Andy LeCuyer, DISH senior vice president of programming. "DISH offers the ability to choose between watching on-demand content that's included in a channel package, renting or buying titles outright, and now adding and subtracting entire catalogs on a monthly basis."

With DISH, customers can watch more than 70,000 of On Demand titles – including all content from the 11 subscription packages – both at home on a Hopper family set-top box, and while on-the-go with the DISH Anywhere app. The DISH Anywhere app gives all customers the ability to watch the on-demand titles associated with their programming package from virtually any location. The app is available on internet-connected mobile devices, including smartphones, tablets and computers, as well as televisions via Amazon Fire TV and Android TV.

New on-demand content
The following commercial-free, on-demand subscriptions are now available to DISH customers starting at $2.99 per month. Customers can watch a free preview of this new content Feb. 4-10.

On-demand subscriptions are available to DISH customers with a qualifying programming package and an internet-connected Hopper DVR (all generations), Hopper Duo, Joey (all models) or Wally. To learn more, visit mydish.com/svod.
 
work on Ultra 4k HD titles next please thank you very much :)

I have an account directly with Curiosity Stream (not a Dish sub for $2.99/mo), and it has quite a bit of 4K material. Does anybody know if everything like 4K is available via Dish as well?

I was wondering if any of their 4K content might come along for the ride as well. Not really familiar with any of the other providers.
 
Forgive my ignorance but this isn't streaming, right? Any selected or rented content will go to "Dish Rentals" folder for later viewing. Is that correct?
 
I have the vip211k and a Fire Stick. The free preview, except for Here TV seems to work. So, if I wanted to sub to some of this, I should be able to via the Fire Stick I would think. But with Prime, HBO, and everything else on Demand Dish has, these services are not needed. Not a bad move for Dish and the service being ad free, but there is so much competition out there, good luck.
